Use Water Wisely

Water is the most important need in life. Because water is life. Water we use everyday for drinking, cooking, bathing and other activities. But the air that is fit for humans is only 1 percent. Why? Isn't our earth about 72 percent covered by water?

《WATER AVAILABILITY IN THE WORLD》 

According to The United States Geological Survey Water Science School, about 71 percent of the earth is covered in water. 97 percent of the water is salty sea water and cannot be used directly by humans. It takes a lot of money to process seawater into a source of water that is suitable for humans. The remaining 2 percent is water trapped in the icebergs of each pole, which if used as a source of water that is suitable for humans, the effect will be bad because the icebergs cannot be melted immediately. Even 1 percent of proper water cannot be used immediately because it has to go through several stages of processing.

Fresh water in lakes is only 0.26 percent in the world, only 0.001 percent of the amount of water in the atmosphere. More than 80 percent of people's gross waste flows directly into the environment without treatment or reuse, as much as 71 percent of the world's natural wetlands have been lost since the 1900s.

《HOW TO KEEP CLEAN WATER AVAILABILITY》 

1. Protect the environment 

Protecting the environment is definitely something that must be done if you want to maintain water availability. Protecting the environment means keeping the available water from being polluted.

2. Save water usage 

We must reduce the habit of using water excessively and irresponsibly because it will have a bad effect in the future. Such as reduced water availability in water sources.

3. Throw garbage in its place

Garbage that has accumulated in rivers or waterways will cause blockages and eventually water will overflow onto the streets and even into the surrounding houses. The water in the polluted river can no longer be used by the local people.

4. Reducing the use of chemicals 

The use of chemicals can cause water pollution and damage to aquatic ecosystems.

5. Do not throw chemicals carelessly

Besides being dangerous for water sustainability, chemicals that are dumped carelessly will also cause damage to the atmosphere. Chemicals that turn into gas can worsen the health of humans and animals around.

6. Recycle used goods

Recycling used goods can prevent clogging in drains and is also economical when done properly.

7. Prevent illegal logging of trees

Illegal and uncontrolled felling of trees will reduce the availability of water in the surrounding environment. So we must prevent illegal and uncontrolled felling of trees so that there is no minimum water availability.

8. Check pipelines regularly

To prevent pipe leaks that cause useless and large volumes of water waste, the pipeline must be checked regularly.

9. Do not use well water excessively

Uncontrolled use of well water will cause a decrease in the soil surface due to drastic reduction in groundwater. Because well water is very dependent on rainfall, it is possible that in the dry season the water will be very lacking or even nonexistent.

《HOW TO USE WATER WISELY》

1. Wash in large quantities

Washing in small amounts will result in more waste water which will just be wasted.

2. Always close the water tap after use

This will avoid wasted water.

3. Repair leaks in pipes or waterways

Just like closing a tap after use, repairing leaks in pipes or waterways will avoid wasting water.

4. Use an aerator tap or a pressure water hose

By using this tool we save water and not waste water for nothing.

5. Use a point of use water heater

We can immediately get hot water without having to waste water while waiting for hot water.

6. Take advantage of waste water

Water from washing vegetables or rice can still be used to water plants.

7. Avoid using plastic bottles or bottled water

Plastic bottles that are not decomposed properly will damage groundwater sources and pollute them with the chemicals contained therein.

《IMPACT IF YOU DO NOT USE WATER WISELY》

1. Water crisis

Due to excessive use of water, the availability of water will decrease or not exist at all and lead to drought.

2. Saltwater Intrusion

The reduced amount of fresh water is replaced by sea water and causes the scarcity of fresh water

3. Soil subsidence

Because the water in the ground continues to decrease, there will be soil subsidence between 3-5 cm. If this continues, it is likely that in the next 20 years the land area will disappear from the map because it is submerged in sea water.

4. Empty space in the ground Groundwater that is used excessively will result in empty space in the soil which can collapse at any time and is very dangerous.

5. Damage to infrastructure Due to the unstable ground surface, the infrastructure that lies above it can be damaged and the losses that must be paid are enormous.

《ADVANTAGES OF USING WATER WISELY》

1. Avoiding a water crisis

If we use water wisely from now on, it is possible that there will be no water crisis in the future.

2. Maintain food supplies

Because food requires water for processing, water availability is very important to maintain food supplies.

3. Preserving the environment

The energy needed to deliver water to homes, industrial or business centers, and agriculture will be reduced and the resulting pollution will be less due to the use of water that is not excessive.

Nah, bagaimana? Mohon maaf apabila ada kesalahan baik dalam grammar-nya, tata bahasanya, maupun penyusunannya. Semoga Bermanfaat!
